Bennett still bothered by sore ankle

Martellus Bennett said he’s still experiencing discomfort in his ankle.

The third-year tight end from Texas A&M missed the first week of practice after rolling his ankle while working out on his own in Irving before the start of camp.

“It’s been lingering on,” Bennett said. “It kind of pisses me off. Every time I try to cut or something, I can’t really do what I want to do…It’s hard to get it 100 percent when you are running on it every day and getting treatment. You gain a little bit and then you lose a little bit.”

The pain, however, won’t be enough to keep him off the field when the Cowboys open the preseason against Cincinnati on Sunday night.
